Mother's Day Picture Frame Craft

Without fail, my daughter gets some type of bead craft for every gift giving occasion. So, we have accumulated quite a stash of beads and definitely will have enough to survive a zombie apocalypse. With Mother's Day around the corner, I decided to whip out some of our craft supplies so that my daughter could make something for her grandmas. Out came the beads!

We decided to make picture frames for the grandmas. I happened to have a couple of wood picture frames from Michael's. My daughter glued all sorts of stray beads and buttons to them, making her own unique design. She initially used Elmer's glue. However, I did have to reglue some that just would not stay with the hot glue gun.

The craft was super easy and my daughter had a great time using her creative mojo. Some more added bonuses--we used some of our extra craft supplies and made cute gifts in the process!
